iCollege Limited and its Controlled Entities for the Year Ended 30 June 2022

Letter from the Chair and CEO

Dear iCollege Shareholders,

FY22 was a transformative year for iCollege, which included completing the acquisition of RedHill to expand our addressable markets and unlock new growth opportunities, and re-igniting our international student revenues when Australia’s borders re-opened in late December 2021.

We take this opportunity to thank our iCollege employees for their ongoing resilience and determination as we emerged from covid shut downs, successfully integrated the RedHill acquisition, activated new growth initiatives, and maintained our focus on delivering great student experiences and outcomes.

Our achievements in these challenging times are testament to the energy and agility of our people, and our collaborative and results driven culture. Pleasingly, this culture has remained evident among all employees and the Board despite navigating some material organisational changes.

There are emerging tail-winds for both international and domestic student markets, and we have bold growth aspirations for FY23 and beyond. We’re determined to remain focused on turbo-charging existing businesses and using our performance momentum and balance sheet strength to actively consider other growth opportunities.

To support our growth ambitions we will continue to lift our governance and management capabilities, and create support structures to ensure that students receive the educational experiences they want and deserve.

We are delighted to present this 2022 Annual Report to our shareholders, and we thank you for your support.

Operational Review

iCollege operates a group of 11 education businesses plus a global international student recruitment agency. We currently educate and inspire approximately 22,000 students across the ELICOS, Vocational and Higher Education sectors. Our broad and diverse mix of domestic and international students undertake their courses either online or at our 11 campuses located across Australia. In addition to this, some of our students are offered work placement and internship opportunities to complement their learning experience and assist to achieve job outcomes.

10 iCollege Limited and its Controlled Entities for the Year Ended 30 June 2022

Highlights for FY22 included:

  • Completion of the acquisition of RedHill Education Limited (RedHill) with financial results consolidated effective from 1 October 2021;

  • Integration of RedHill has been completed and cost synergies in excess of the targeted amount of $1.0 million - $1.3 million have been achieved;

  • Positive government support for international students returning to Australia;

  • Strong growth in lead indicators including prospective international student inquiries, letters of offer and confirmed new student enrolments into iCollege courses; and

  • An increase in deferred revenues of $16.4 million from December 2021 following the reopening of Australia’s international borders.

GREENWICH SEGMENT

Greenwich operating segment revenues in FY22 were $17.8 million for the period post acquisition of RedHill. Greenwich English language course revenues were $6.4 million, and Greenwich vocational management course revenues were $11.4 million.

Vocational student numbers and revenues grew in FY22 against pcp due to students choosing to remain in Australia and continue studying while international borders were closed.

English language student numbers started materially increasing in 2H22 when Australia’s borders re-opened to international students, and English language revenues are expected to be a larger proportion of the revenue mix in FY23.

SERO/CELTIC/CTI (SCC) SEGMENT

SCC operating segment revenues in FY22 were $15.9 million, a reduction of $0.4 million against pcp. Domestic student revenues increased by 12% against pcp due to strong growth in Celtic healthcare courses (which grew 58%).

Sero international student revenues declined 18% against pcp due to Australian international borders being closed until the end of December 2021.

CTI revenues declined 25% in FY22 against pcp, with student enrolments and progression constrained by construction industry workforce shortages (students prioritising practical, on-site work over study).

Segment results declined against pcp due to increased marketing spend and labour costs in anticipation of revenue growth. Spending was reduced during 2H22 to reflect trading conditions.

GO STUDY SEGMENT

Go Study operating segment revenues in FY22 were $3.4 million for the period post acquisition. Offshore offices contributed approximately 25% of revenues in the period, down from pre-COVID levels of approximately 40% of total revenues. Offshore revenues are expected to grow strongly in FY23.

TECHNOLOGY & DESIGN SEGMENT

Technology & Design operating segment revenues in FY22 were $10.3 million for the period post acquisition of RedHill. Revenues in the period were impacted by international border closures and other COVID-19 pandemic impacts affecting student study patterns.

No further information in respect of iCollege’s business strategies and prospects has been included, as the directors believe that this information is of a confidential nature in a highly competitive industry and that more detail would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to iCollege.

Remuneration Report (Audited)

The remuneration report details the director and other key management personnel ('KMP') remuneration arrangements for the consolidated entity and the parent entity.

KMP are defined as those who have the authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the consolidated entity, directly or indirectly, including any director of the entity, in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and its Regulations.

14

iCollege Limited and its Controlled Entities for the Year Ended 30 June 2022

The remuneration report is set out under the following main headings:

  • A. Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration

  • B. Details of remuneration

  • C. Service agreements

  • D. Share-based compensation

  • E. Additional disclosures relating to key management personnel

  • F. Other transactions with KMP

A. PRINCIPLES USED TO DETERMINE THE NATURE AND AMOUNT OF REMUNERATION

The Remuneration Committee is responsible for determining and reviewing remuneration arrangements for directors and executives. The performance of the consolidated entity depends on the quality of its directors and executives. The remuneration philosophy is to attract, motivate and retain high performing and high quality personnel.

Remuneration of Directors and senior management is determined with regard to the performance of the Company, the performance and skills and experience of the particular person and prevailing remuneration expectations in the market. Details of remuneration of Directors and Key Management Personnel (KMP) are disclosed in the Remuneration Report. The performance and remuneration of the senior management team is reviewed at least annually.

Following the RedHill acquisition, iCollege is a much larger organisation. The Remuneration Committee is developing a structured executive remuneration framework designed to be market competitive and complementary to the reward strategy of the consolidated entity. The Remuneration Committee from time to time use external consultants to assist in development of remuneration strategy, as detailed in the 'Use of remuneration consultants' section below.

In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of executive and non-executive director remuneration is dealt with separately.

Non-executive director remuneration

The approved aggregate maximum amount payable to non-executive directors as director fees (excluding salary payments to the executive directors) is $550,000 per annum.

Fees paid to non-executive directors reflect the demands which are made on, and the responsibilities of, the directors. These fees are reviewed annually to ensure they are appropriate and in line with the market.

The Chair's fees are determined independently of the fees of other non-executive directors based on comparative roles in the external market. The Chair is not present at any discussions relating to the determination of their own remuneration.

Non-executive directors may be offered equity as part of their remuneration, subject to shareholder approval.

Executive remuneration

Senior executives are engaged under the terms of individual employment contracts. Such contracts are based upon standard terms drafted by the Company’s lawyers. Executive Directors do not receive any directors’ fees in addition to their remuneration arrangements. Base salaries are set to reflect the market salary for a position and individual of comparable responsibility and experience. Base salaries are regularly compared with the external market and during recruitment activities generally. It is the policy of the Company to maintain a competitive salary structure to ensure continued availability of experienced and effective management and staff.

Executives are prohibited from entering into transactions or arrangements which limit the economic risk of participating in unvested entitlements.

15

FIXED REMUNERATION

Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Board. The process consists of a review of relevant comparative remuneration in the market and internally and, where appropriate, external advice on policies and practices. The Committee has access to external, independent advice where necessary.

Executives are given the opportunity to receive their fixed (primary) remuneration in a variety of forms including cash and fringe benefits such as motor vehicles and expense payment plans. It is intended that the manner of payment chosen will be optimal for the recipient without creating undue cost for the Group.

VARIABLE REMUNERATION

The short-term incentives ('STI') program is designed to align the targets of the business units with the targets of those executives responsible for meeting those targets. STI payments are granted to executives based on specific annual targets and key performance indicators ('KPI') being achieved. KPI’s include profit contribution, customer satisfaction, leadership contribution and product innovation management.

The Company intend to introduce a long term incentive scheme during FY23.

The directors consider that there is a positive correlation between the company's remuneration policies and its financial performance.

Use of remuneration consultants

The Remuneration Committee did not engage the services of remuneration consultants during the year.

Voting and comment made on the Group's 2021 Annual General Meeting

The Company received 99.98% of "yes" votes on its remuneration report for the 2021 financial year. The Company did not receive any specific feedback at the AGM or throughout the year on its remuneration practices.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

30

iCollege Limited and its Controlled Entities for the Year Ended 30 June 2022

Changes in classification of amounts following the acquisition of RedHill Education Limited

Following the acquisition of RedHill Education Limited (RedHill) on 1 October 2021, the accounting policies of both organisations have been reviewed and aligned. This has resulted in some changes in classification of certain income statement, balance sheet and cash flow statement accounts and these changes have been reflected in the prior comparative period. There has been no change in the net assets or net profit or net movement in cash and cash equivalents of the organisation in the prior period.

NOTE 1. Significant Accounting Policies

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

REPORTING ENTITY

The Financial Report covers iCollege Ltd (iCollege or the Company) and its controlled entities (the consolidated entity) iCollege is a for profit company limited by shares whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) . The Company is primarily involved in businesses which deliver accredited and non-accredited English language, vocational education and higher education course as well as education recruitment agency services to international students.

In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the consolidated entity only.

1.1 BASIS OF PREPARATION

The Financial Report has been prepared on the historical cost and accrual basis except where stated otherwise.

These financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations of the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the Corporations Act 2001 (CTH) .

Australian Accounting Standards Board set out accounting policies that the AAS Board has concluded would result ina financial report containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, event and conditions to which they apply. Compliance with AASBs ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with IFRS as issued by the IASB.

iCollege Limited’s full financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2022 have been approved by the Board, reported on by the auditors, and filed with the Australian Securities and Investments Commissions.

The Group’s full financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.

1.2 ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The consolidated entity has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are mandatory for the current reporting period. Any new, revised or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.

The following Accounting Standards and Interpretations are most relevant to the consolidated entity: Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting (Conceptual Framework)

31

The consolidated entity has adopted the revised Conceptual Framework from 1 July 2021. The Conceptual Framework contains new definition and recognition criteria as well as new guidance on measurement that affects several Accounting Standards, but it has not had a material impact on the consolidated entity's financial statements.

The principal accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding reporting period, unless otherwise stated. When the presentation or classification of items in the financial report is amended, comparative amounts are also reclassified.

1.3 GOING CONCERN

The financial report has been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company completed an off-market takeover of RedHill, iCollege Ltd now owns all of the issued share capital of RedHill and RedHill became a wholly owned subsidiary of iCollege effective 1 October 2021.

Following the resumption of international travel and the return of international students to Australia, the Company has traded strongly in the second half of FY22 and generated $11.2 million of Operating Cash Flow during FY22. As at 30 June 2022, the consolidated entity held $27.2 million of cash and cash equivalents, an increase of $7.8 million from December 2021. In addition to cash and cash equivalents, there are term deposits of $3.1 million classified within non-current assets.

Greenwich, Sero and Go Study (in particular) have seen significant increases in student inquiries and enrolments. This has translated into higher future revenues in 2H22 and this trend is expected to continue in FY23.

The directors have a reasonable expectation that the consolidated entity has sufficient funds on hands to pay its debts as and when they fall due over the next twelve months.

1.4 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the consolidated entity's accounting policies. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors, including expectations of future events, management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next financial year are discussed below.

Allowance for expected credit losses

The allowance for expected credit losses assessment requires a degree of estimation and judgement. It is based on the lifetime expected credit loss, grouped based on days overdue, and makes assumptions to allocate an overall expected credit loss rate for each group. These assumptions include recent sales experience, historical collection rates, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and forward-looking information that is available. The allowance for expected credit losses, as disclosed in note 8, is calculated based on the information available at the time of preparation. The actual credit losses incurred in future years may be higher or lower.

Estimation of useful lives of assets

The consolidated entity determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation and amortisation charges for its property, plant and equipment and finite life intangible assets. The useful lives could change significantly as a result of technical innovations or some other event. The depreciation and amortisation charge will increase where the useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, or technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold will be written off or written down.

32 iCollege Limited and its Controlled Entities for the Year Ended 30 June 2022

Income tax

The consolidated entity is subject to income taxes in the jurisdictions in which it operates. Significant judgement is required in determining the provision for income tax. There are many transactions and calculations undertaken during the ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The consolidated entity recognises liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on the consolidated entity's current understanding of the tax law. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the carrying amounts, such differences will impact the current and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.

Recovery of deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences only if the consolidated entity considers it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. Management have exercised their judgement in determining if it is probable that sufficient future taxable income will be available to utilise all tax losses. The directors consider it prudent to not recognise the deferred tax assets until there is more certainty in relation to the probability that the consolidated entity will have sufficient future taxable profits available against which the unused tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilised. The directors have assessed the carrying value of deferred tax assets in the consolidated entity as appropriate at 30 June 2022.

Lease term

The lease term is a significant component in the measurement of both the right-of-use asset and lease liability. Judgement is exercised in determining whether there is reasonable certainty that an option to extend the lease or purchase the underlying asset will be exercised, or an option to terminate the lease will not be exercised, when ascertaining the periods to be included in the lease term. In determining the lease term, all facts and circumstances that create an economical incentive to exercise an extension option, or not to exercise a termination option, are considered at the lease commencement date. Factors considered may include the importance of the asset to the consolidated entity's operations; comparison of terms and conditions to prevailing market rates; incurrence of significant penalties; existence of significant leasehold improvements; and the costs and disruption to replace the asset. The consolidated entity reassesses whether it is reasonably certain to exercise an extension option, or not exercise a termination option, if there is a significant event or significant change in circumstances. Most extension options in vehicle leases have not been included in the lease liability, because the consolidated entity could replace the assets without significant cost or business disruption.

Incremental borrowing rate

Where the interest rate implicit in a lease cannot be readily determined, an incremental borrowing rate is estimated to discount future lease payments to measure the present value of the lease liability at the lease commencement date. Such a rate is based on what the consolidated entity estimates it would have to pay a third party to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a similar value to the right-of-use asset, with similar terms, security and economic environment.

Lease make good provision

A provision has been made for the present value of anticipated costs for future restoration of leased premises. The provision includes future cost estimates associated with closure of the premises. The calculation of this provision requires assumptions such as application of closure dates and cost estimates. The provision recognised for each site is periodically reviewed and updated based on the facts and circumstances available at the time. Changes to the estimated future costs for sites are recognised in the statement of financial position by adjusting both the expense or asset, if applicable, and provision.

Share-based payments

The consolidated entity measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an internal valuation using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.

33

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

The judgements, estimates and assumptions are applied in the consolidated financial statements, including the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied in the consolidated entity’s last annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2021.

Impairment

The consolidated entity assess impairment at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the consolidated entity and to the particular asset that may lead to impairment. If an impairment indicator exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. This involves fair value less costs of disposal or value-in-use calculations, which incorporate a number of key estimates and assumptions.

To determine value in use, management has estimated expected future cash flows from each cash generating unit (CGU) and also determined a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. The data used for impairment testing is directly linked to the latest approved budget.

The discount rate calculation is based upon specific circumstances of the consolidated entity and is derived from its weighted average cost of capital.

1.5 ROUNDING OF AMOUNTS

The Company is of a kind referred to in Corporations Instrument 2016/191 (Rounding in Financial/Director’s Reports), issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, relating to ‘rounding-off’. Amounts in this report have been rounded off in accordance with that Corporations Instrument to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, the nearest dollar.

1.6 FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency.

Foreign currency transactions

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the Company’s functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at financial year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss.

Foreign operations

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates at the reporting date. The revenues and expenses of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the average exchange rates, which approximate the rates at the dates of the transactions, for the period. All resulting foreign exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income through the foreign currency reserve in equity.

The foreign currency reserve is recognised in profit or loss when the foreign operation or net investment is disposed of.

1.7 CURRENT AND NON-CURRENT CLASSIFICATION

Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification. An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the consolidated entity’s normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading;

34 iCollege Limited and its Controlled Entities for the Year Ended 30 June 2022

it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the consolidated entity's normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current.

1.8 PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of iCollege Ltd as at 30 June 2022 and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended. iCollege and its subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the ‘consolidated entity’. Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the consolidated entity has control. The consolidated entity controls an entity when the consolidated entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the consolidated entity. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the consolidated entity are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the consolidated entity.

The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in ownership interest, without the loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction, where the difference between the consideration transferred and the book value of the share of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognised directly in equity attributable to the parent.

Where the consolidated entity loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets including goodwill, liabilities and non-controlling interest in the subsidiary together with any cumulative translation differences recognised in equity. The consolidated entity recognises the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any investment retained together with any gain or loss in profit or loss.

1.9 REVENUE RECOGNITION

The consolidated entity recognises revenue as follows:

Revenue from contracts with customers

Revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the consolidated entity is expected to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. For each contract with a customer, the consolidated entity: identifies the contract with a customer; identifies the performance obligations in the contract; determines the transaction price which takes into account estimates of variable consideration and the time value of money; allocates the transaction price to the separate performance obligations on the basis of the relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or service to be delivered; and recognises revenue when or as each performance obligation is satisfied in a manner that depicts the transfer to the customer of the goods or services promised.

Tuition related revenue

Tuition revenue and other education material related revenue are recognised when the consolidated entity satisfies its performance obligation by delivering tuition services and other educational material to the student over time.

35

Commission revenue

Commission revenue is recognised at the point in time at which the consolidated entity is deemed to have fulfilled its commitment as an agent by placing the student in the course of their choice. This usually occurs upon commencement of the course by the student, at which point in time non-refundable enrolment and tuition fees have been paid by them to the education provider.

Interest

Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.

Student co-contribution revenue for government funded courses

Administration fees for allowing the student to perform the required pre-admission literacy test are student co-contribution revenue. This revenue is recognised using the point in time recognition when the performance obligations are satisfied (i.e., when students have completed the literacy test for eligibility into the funded course and enrolments are confirmed).

Government funded courses

Revenue is recognised when the student has successfully completed the course and has submitted the claim to the government.

1.10 GOVERNMENT GRANTS

Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received, and the consolidated entity will comply with all attached conditions. Government grants relating to costs are deferred and recognised in profit or loss over the period necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate.

1.11 INCOME TAX

The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on that period's taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment recognised for prior periods, where applicable.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates that are enacted or substantively enacted, except for:

  • When the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting nor taxable profits; or

  • When the taxable temporary difference is associated with interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal can be controlled, and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.

The carrying amount of recognised and unrecognised deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Deferred tax assets recognised are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available for the carrying amount to be recovered. Previously unrecognised deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that there are future taxable profits available to recover the asset.

36

iCollege Limited and its Controlled Entities for the Year Ended 30 June 2022

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities; and they relate to the same taxable authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously.

The Company and its wholly owned Australian subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under the tax consolidation regime. The Company and each subsidiary in the tax consolidated group continue to account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. The tax consolidated group has applied the 'group allocation' approach in determining the appropriate amount of taxes to allocate to members of the tax consolidated group.

In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, the Company also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from each subsidiary in the tax consolidated group.

Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the tax consolidated group. The tax funding arrangement ensures that the intercompany charge equals the current tax liability or benefit of each tax consolidated group member, resulting in neither a contribution by the Company to the subsidiaries nor a distribution by the subsidiaries to the parent entity.

Where the consolidated group receives the Australian Government’s Research and Development Tax Incentive, the consolidated group accounts for the refundable tax offset under AASB 112. Funds are received as a rebate through the parent company’s income tax return.

1.12 CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other shortterm, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

1.13 TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES

Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any allowance for expected credit losses. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days.

The consolidated entity has applied the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses, which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance. To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped based on days overdue.

1.14 PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis to write off the net cost of each item of property, plant and equipment over their expected useful lives as follows:

Leasehold improvements 5-10 years Plant and equipment 2-10 years Motor vehicles 5 years

The residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.

37

The cost of replacing part of an item of plant and equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodies within the part will flow to the consolidated entity and its cost can be measured reliably. Any costs of the day-to-day servicing of plant and equipment are recognised in the income statement as an expense as incurred.

Leasehold improvements and plant and equipment under lease are depreciated over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the assets, whichever is shorter. Any landlord incentives that are specific to leasehold improvements have been offset against the costs of those assets.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no future economic benefit to the consolidated entity.

1.15 ASSETS UNDER CONSTRUCTION

This expenditure includes net direct costs of construction, borrowing costs capitalised during construction and an appropriate allocation of attributable overheads.

Once a project is complete and is ready for operations, all aggregated costs of construction are transferred to either leasehold improvements or plant and equipment as appropriate.

1.16 RIGHT-OF-USE ASSETS

A right-of-use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and, except where included in the cost of inventories, an estimate of costs expected to be incurred for dismantling and removing the underlying asset, and restoring the site or asset.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the consolidated entity expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. Right-of use assets are subject to impairment or adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities.

The consolidated entity has elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-term leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these assets are expensed to profit or loss as incurred.

1.17 INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets acquired as part of a business combination, other than goodwill, are initially measured at their fair value at the date of the acquisition. Intangible assets acquired separately are initially recognised at cost. Finite life intangible assets are subsequently measured at cost less amortisation and any impairment. The gains or losses recognised in profit or loss arising from the derecognition of intangible assets are measured as the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset. The method and useful lives of finite life intangible assets are reviewed annually. Changes in the expected pattern of consumption or useful life are accounted for prospectively by changing the amortisation method or period.

Goodwill

Where an entity or operation is acquired in a business combination, the identifiable net assets acquired are measured at fair value. The excess of the fair value of the cost of the acquisition over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is brought to account as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortised. Instead, goodwill is tested for impairment (if not already fully impaired) annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Impairment losses on goodwill are taken to profit or loss and are not subsequently reversed. For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the consolidated entity’s cash-generating units (CGU) (or groups of CGUs) that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. On disposal of the relevant CGU, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal.

38

iCollege Limited and its Controlled Entities for the Year Ended 30 June 2022

Brand names

Brand names acquired as part of a business combination are recognised at fair value on acquisition. Brand names are not amortised. Instead, brand names are tested for impairment (if not already fully impaired) annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Impairment losses on brand names are taken to profit or loss and are not subsequently reversed.

Training materials

Training materials acquired as part of a business combination are recognised at fair value on acquisition. Training materials are amortised on a straight-line basis over seven years.

Agent relationships

Agent relationships acquired as part of a business combination are recognised at fair value on acquisition. Training materials are amortised on a straight-line basis over ten years.

No asset is recognised for internally generated agent relationships.

Software

Significant costs associated with software are deferred and amortised on a straight-line basis over the period of their expected benefit, being their finite useful life of between two and three years.

Copyrights and licenses

Course development expenditure includes copyrights and licenses which are recognised as an asset at cost less any impairment losses. Once delivery of the course to which the development costs relate has commenced the associated costs are amortised over the life of the accreditation, being their finite useful life between two and three years.

Research and development

Internally-generated intangible assets – research and development expenditure are recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.

An internally generated intangible asset arising from development (or from the development phase of an internal project) is recognised if, and only if, all of the following have been demonstrated:

  • The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale;

  • The intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it;

  • The ability to use or sell the intangible asset;

  • How the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits;

  • The availability of adequate technical, financial, and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset; and

  • The ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.

The amount initially recognised for internally generated intangible assets is the sum of the expenditure incurred from the date when the intangible asset first meets the recognition criteria listed above. Where no internally generated asset can be recognised, development expenditure is recognised in profit or loss in the period in which it is incurred.

Expenditures in relation to the development of identifiable and unique products, and that will probably generate economic benefits exceeding costs beyond one year, are recognised as intangible assets and amortised over their estimated useful lives. Any expenditure related to research is expensed as incurred.

39

Subsequent measurement

Amortisation of intellectual property is charged to operating expenses and/or cost of services on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, from the date they are available for use. The residual values and useful lives are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted, if appropriate. The following useful lives are used in the calculation of amortisation:

Brand names not amortised but tested annually for impairment Licensed operations 7 years Training materials 7 years Agent relationships 10 years Course materials 2-3 years

Impairment of non-financial assets

Goodwill is not subject to amortisation and, if not already fully impaired, is tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other non-financial assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.

Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use. The value-in-use is the present value of the estimated future cash flows relating to the asset using a pre-tax discount rate specific to the asset or cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Assets that do not have independent cash flows are grouped together to form a cash-generating unit.

1.18 TRADE AND OTHER PAYABLES

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the consolidated entity prior to the end of the financial year and which are unpaid. Due to their short-term nature, they are measured at amortized cost and are not discounted. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

1.19 CONTRACT LIABILITIES

Contract liabilities relate to tuition fees invoiced but not yet earned in relation to all student tuition invoices. These invoiced tuition fees are recognized as revenue in monthly increments as education services are provided to the students.

1.20 LEASE LIABILITIES

A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognised at the present value of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the consolidated entity's incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments comprise of fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the option is reasonably certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties.

Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured if there is a change in the following: future lease payments arising from a change in an index or a rate used; residual guarantee; lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an adjustment is made to the corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is fully written down.

40 iCollege Limited and its Controlled Entities for the Year Ended 30 June 2022

The consolidated entity has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less and do not contain a purchase option, and leases of low value assets.

The consolidated entity recognizes the lease payment associated with these leases as an expense on a straightline basis over the lease term.

1.21 PROVISIONS

Provisions are recognised when the consolidated entity has a present (legal or constructive) obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable the consolidated entity will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. If the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate specific to the liability. The increase in the provision resulting from the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.

1.22 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

Short-term employee benefits

Liabilities for wages and salaries and other employee benefits expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.

Long-term employee benefits

Employee benefits not expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on high quality corporate bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.

Defined contribution superannuation expense

Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

Share-based payments

The Company may provide benefits to employees (including directors) and consultants of the consolidated entity in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby services are rendered in exchange for shares, options or rights over shares (‘equity-settled transactions’).

The cost of equity-settled transactions is measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option, together with non-vesting conditions that do not determine whether the consolidated entity receives the services that entitle the employees to receive payment. No account is taken of any other vesting conditions. For equity-settled transactions with market conditions, fair value is independently determined using the Monte-Carlo simulation.

The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period. The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date fair value of the award, the best estimate of the number of awards that are likely to vest and the expired portion of the vesting period. The amount recognised in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already recognised in previous periods. For equity-settled transactions with market conditions, the expense is recognised over the vesting period regardless of whether the market conditions are met since market conditions are taken into account when determining the fair value at grant date.

41

If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not been made. An additional expense is recognised, over the remaining vesting period, for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification.

If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the consolidated entity or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition is treated as a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the consolidated entity or employee and is not satisfied during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining vesting period, unless the award is forfeited.

If equity-settled awards are cancelled, they are treated as if they had vested on the date of cancellation, and any remaining expense is recognised immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled award, the cancelled and new award are treated as if they were a modification.

Termination benefits

When applicable, the consolidated entity recognises a liability and expense for termination benefits at the earlier of:

  • The date when the consolidated entity can no longer withdraw the offer for termination benefits; and

  • When the consolidated entity recognises costs for restructuring pursuant to AASB 137 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets and the costs include termination benefits.

In either case, unless the number of employees affected is known, the obligation for termination benefits is measured on the basis of the number of employees expected to be affected. Termination benefits that are expected to be settled wholly before 12 months after the annual reporting period in which the benefits are recognised are measured at the (undiscounted) amounts expected to be paid. All other termination benefits are accounted for in the same basis as other long-term employee benefits.

1.23 ISSUED CAPITAL

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares, performance rights or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

1.24 EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the shareholders of the Company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the financial year.

Diluted earnings per share

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential on ordinary shares at balance date and the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares during the financial year.

1.25 GOODS AND SERVICES TAX (‘GST’) AND OTHER SIMILAR TAXES

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the tax authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of the acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority is included in other receivables or other payables in the statement of financial position.

42 iCollege Limited and its Controlled Entities for the Year Ended 30 June 2022

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating cash flows.

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority.

1.26 BORROWINGS

Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method and include:

  • Interest on bank overdrafts;

  • Interest on short-term and long-term borrowings;

  • Interest on finance leases; and

  • Unwinding of the discount on provisions.

Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates.

Where there is an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date, the loans or borrowings are classified as non-current.

Borrowings are removed from the Statement of Consolidated Financial Position when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled, or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss as other income or finance costs. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the consolidated entity has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.

1.27 CONVERTIBLE NOTES

The component parts of convertible notes issued by the consolidated entity are classified separately as financial liabilities and equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument. Conversion options that will be settled by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of the Company’s own equity instruments is an equity instrument.

At the date of issue, the fair value of the liability component is estimated using the prevailing market interest rate for similar non-convertible instruments. This amount is recognised as a liability on an amortised cost basis using the effective interest method until extinguishment upon conversion or at the instrument’s maturity date. The remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the conversion option. This is recognised and included in shareholders’ equity, net of income tax effects.

The conversion option classified as equity is determined by deducting the amount of the liability component from the fair value of the compound instrument as a whole. This is recognised and included in equity, net of income tax effects, and is not subsequently remeasured. In addition, the conversion option classified as equity will be transferred to share premium. Where the conversion option remains unexercised at the maturity date of the convertible note, the balance recognised in equity will be transferred to retained profits. No gain or loss is recognised in the profit or loss upon conversion or expiration of the conversion option.

Transactions costs that relate to the issue of the convertible notes are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to the allocation of the gross proceeds. Transaction costs relating to the equity component are recognised directly in equity. Transaction costs relating to the liability component are included in the carrying amount of the liability component and are amortised over the lives of the convertible notes using the effective interest method.

43

1.28 INVENTORIES

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs incurred to bringing each product to its present location and condition are accounted for as the cost of purchase.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

1.29 BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired, as at the acquisition date, which is the date on which control is transferred to the consolidated entity. Control exists when the consolidated entity is exposed to variable return from another entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.

The consideration transferred is the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred, equity instruments issued, or liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree and the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. For each business combination, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree is measured at either fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. All acquisition costs are expensed as incurred to profit or loss.

On the acquisition of a business, the consolidated entity assesses the financial assets acquired and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic conditions, the consolidated entity's operating or accounting policies and other pertinent conditions in existence at the acquisition-date.

Where the business combination is achieved in stages, the consolidated entity remeasures its previously held equity interest in the acquiree at the acquisition-date fair value and the difference between the fair value and the previous carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss.

The consolidated entity measures goodwill at the acquisition date as:

  • The fair value of the consideration transferred; plus

  • The recognised amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree; plus

  • If the business combination is achieved in stages, the fair value of the existing equity interest in the acquiree; less

  • The net recognised amount of the identifiable assets acquired, and liabilities assumed.

The excess of the consideration transferred and the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the consolidated entity’s share of the net identifiable assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If those amounts are less than the fair value of the net identifiable assets of the subsidiary acquired and the measurement of all amounts has been reviewed, the difference is recognised directly in profit or loss as a bargain purchase, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets acquired, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree, if any, the consideration transferred and the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquirer.

The consideration transferred does not include amounts related to settlement of pre-existing relationships. Such amounts are generally recognised in profit or loss.

Costs related to the acquisition, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, that the consolidated entity incurs in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred.

Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present value as at the date of exchange. The discount rate used is the entity’s incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions.

Any contingent consideration payable is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it is not remeasured, and settlement is accounted for within equity. Otherwise, subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration are recognised in profit or loss. Contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity.

44 iCollege Limited and its Controlled Entities for the Year Ended 30 June 2022

Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the consolidated entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date the control commences until the date the control ceases.

The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed when necessary to align them with the policies adopted by the consolidated entity.

Equity interests in a subsidiary not attributable, directly, or indirectly, to the consolidated entity are presented as non-controlling interests. The consolidated entity initially recognises non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests in subsidiaries and are entitled to a proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net assets on liquidation at either fair value or at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, non-controlling interests are attributed their share of profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income. Non-controlling interests are shown separately within the equity section of the statement of financial position and state of comprehensive income.

The grant by the Company of options over its equity instruments to the employees of subsidiary undertakings in the consolidated entity is treated as capital contribution to that subsidiary undertaking. The fair value of employee services received, measured by reference to the grant date fair value, is recognised over the vesting period as an increase to investment in subsidiary undertakings, with a corresponding credit to equity.

Losses applicable to the non-controlling interests in a subsidiary are allocated to the non-controlling interests even if doing so causes the non-controlling interests to have a deficit balance.

Upon the loss of control, the consolidated entity derecognises the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, any non-controlling interests and the other components of equity related to the subsidiary. Any surplus or deficit arising on the loss of control is recognised in profit or loss. If the consolidated entity retains any interest in the previous subsidiary, then such interests are measured at fair value at the date control is lost. Subsequently it is accounted for as an equity-accounted investee or as an available-for-sale financial asset depending on the level of influence retained.

1.30 FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

The consolidated entity measures some of its assets and liabilities at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis, depending on the requirements of the applicable AASB.

Fair value is the price of the consolidated entity would receive to sell an asset or would have to pay to transfer a liability in an orderly unforced transaction between independent, knowledgeable, and willing market participants at the measurement date.

As fair value is a market-based measure, the closest equivalent observable market pricing information is used to determine fair value. Adjustments to market values may be made having regard to the characteristics of the specific asset or liability. The fair values of assets and liabilities that are not traded on an active market are determined using one or more valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable market data.

To the extent possible, market information is extracted from either the principal market for the asset or liability (i.e. the market with the greatest volume and level of activity for the asset or liability) or, in the absence of such a market, the most advantageous market available to the entity at the end of the reporting period (i.e. the market that maximised the receipts from the sale of the asset or minimises the payments made to transfer the liability, after taking into account transaction costs and transport costs).

For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement also considers a market participant’s ability to use the asset in its highest and best use or to sell it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The fair value of liabilities and the entity’s own equity instruments (excluding those related to share-based payment arrangements) may be valued, where there is no observable market price in relation to the transfer of such financial instruments, by reference to observable market information where such instruments are held as assets. Where this information is not available, other valuation techniques are adopted and, where significant, are detailed in the respective note to the financial statements.

45

Fair value hierarchy

AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement requires the disclosure of fair value information by level of the fair value hierarchy, which categorises fair value measurements into one of three possible levels based on the lowest level that an input that is significant to the measurement can be categorised into as follows: Type text here

Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Measurements based on Measurements based on Measurements based on
quoted prices (unadjusted) in inputs other than quoted unobservable inputs for the
active markets for identical prices included in Level 1 that asset or liability.
assets or liabilities that are observable for the asset
the entity can access at the or liability, either directly
measurement date. or indirectly.

The fair values of assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market are determined using one or more valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise, to the extent possible, the use of observable market data. If all significant inputs required to measure fair value are observable, the asset or liability is included in Level 2. If one or more significant inputs are not based on observable market data, the asset or liability is included in Level 3.

The consolidated entity would change the categorisation within the fair value hierarchy only in the following circumstances:

  • If a market that was previously considered active (Level 1) became inactive (Level 2 or Level 3) or vice versa; or

  • If significant inputs that were previously unobservable (Level 3) became observable (Level 2) or vice versa.

When a change in the categorisation occurs, the consolidated entity recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy (i.e., transfers into and out of each level of the fair value hierarchy) on the date the event or change in circumstances occurred.

Valuation techniques

The consolidated entity selects a valuation technique that is appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available to measure fair value. The availability of sufficient and relevant data primarily depends on the specific characteristics of the asset or liability being measured. The valuation techniques selected by the consolidated entity are consistent with one or more of the following valuation approaches:

  • Market approach: valuation techniques that use prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions for identical or similar assets or liabilities;

  • Income approach: valuation techniques that convert estimated future cash flows or income and expenses into a single discounted present value; and

  • Cost approach: valuation techniques that reflect the current replacement cost of an asset as its current service capacity.

Each valuation technique requires inputs that reflect the assumptions that buyers and sellers would use when pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risks. When selecting a valuation technique, the consolidated entity gives priority to those techniques that maximise the use of observable inputs and minimise the use of unobservable inputs. Inputs that are developed using market data (such as publicly available information on actual transactions) and reflect the assumptions that buyers and sellers would generally use when pricing the asset or liability are considered observable, whereas inputs for which market data is not available and therefore are developed using the best information available about such assumptions are considered unobservable.

1.31 OPERATING SEGMENTS

Operating segments are presented using the 'management approach', where the information presented is on the same basis as the internal reports provided to the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM'). The CODM is responsible for the allocation of resources to operating segments and assessing their performance.

Identification of reportable operating segments

The consolidated entity is organised into four operating segments: Technology & Design, Greenwich, Go Study and Sero/Celtic/CTI. These operating segments are based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Chief Executive Officer who is identified as the CODM in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources. There is no aggregation of operating segments.

The CODM reviews both adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (‘EBITDA’) and profit before income tax.

The information reported to the CODM is on at least a monthly basis.

Types of products and services

The principal products and services of each of these operating segments are as follows:

TECHNOLOGY & DESIGN

An Australian provider of face-to-face and online courses in information technology, digital design, interactive multimedia, computer coding, digital marketing, games and apps programming, and interior design.

GO STUDY

An international student advisory and recruitment agency with operations in Australia (Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Perth), Europe (Spain, France, Italy) and South America (Colombia, Chile).

GREENWICH

An Australian provider of English Language Intensive Courses for Overseas Students (‘ELICOS’), and Vocational Education and Training (‘VET’) courses for overseas students.

SERO/CELTIC/CTI

An Australian provider of face to face and online VET courses to both domestic and international students. Courses cover Commercial Cookery, Hospitality, Business, Community Services, Healthcare, Construction, English, and Information Technology.

Intersegment transactions

Intersegment transactions were made at market rates. Intersegment transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

Intersegment receivables, payables and loans

Intersegment loans are initially recognised at the consideration received. Intersegment loans receivable and loans payable that earn or incur non-market interest are not adjusted to fair value based on market interest rates. Intersegment loans are eliminated on consolidation.

Major customers

The consolidated entity has no significant individual customers.

NOTE 2. Acquisition of Subsidiary

Acquisition of RedHill Education Limited

On 1 October 2021, iCollege Limited (iCollege) announced to the ASX that the Off-market Takeover Offer for RedHill became unconditional given the iCollege interest in RedHill exceeded 90% which represented the minimum acceptance condition. iCollege then proceeded with the compulsory acquisition of any RedHill shares that it did not own in accordance with the Corporations Act. Following completion of the compulsory acquisition process, iCollege owns all of the issued share capital of RedHill and RedHill became a wholly owned subsidiary of iCollege.

RedHill delivers vocational and higher education courses in English language, digital technologies, and interior design to over 20,000 domestic and international students each year and operates an international student advisory and recruitment agency. The organization operates a number of specialist businesses in the private tertiary education market in Australia.

Total consideration of the transaction is calculated as follows:

52,344,897 (total RedHill shares) x 9.5 * $0.135 = $67,132,339

On 1 October 2021 the net assets for RedHill Education Limited was $1,585,058

The initial accounting for the acquisition of RedHill was provisionally determined at the end of the half- year with total goodwill arising on the transaction calculated as follows: $67,132,339 - $1,585,058 = $65,547,281.

At the date of finalisation of this year’s financial report, the necessary market valuations and other calculations had been finalised and the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities noted above have been determined as per AASB 3 and AASB 138 performed by an independent party.

On 25 October 2021 a total of 467,245,747 ordinary shares were issued as part of a transaction previously announced to the market on 1 October 2021. A further 30,030,841 ordinary shares were issued upon completion of the compulsory acquisition process on 4 November 2021.

The acquisition was a 100% scrip-based transaction with the purchase price being funded via the issuance of iCollege shares in exchange for RedHill shares. The only cash flows associated with the acquisition were transaction related costs including legal fees, fees payable to advisors and related costs which totalled $3.3 million in the year ended 30 June 2022. Payments of merger related costs of $5.8 million have been included in the statement of cash flows. The difference between expenses and cash flows is mainly due to payments to advisors to RedHill accrued as at 1 October 2021 and paid subsequently.

49

Goodwill is attributed to the expected synergies and other benefits from combining the activities of RedHill to the Group. An allocation of intangibles has been undertaken with $9,562,000 allocated to Brand Names, $7,993,000 allocated to Training Materials, $8,432,000 allocated to Agent Relationships and the remainder, $38,747,000, allocated to Goodwill (refer to Note 15).

Revenue generated from the RedHill acquisition for the period from acquisition to 30 June 2022 was $30.9 million. At the date of acquisition, RedHill had cash on hand of $21.3 million, plus term deposits in support of bank guarantees of $2.5 million.

No additional costs were incurred in relation to the issue of shares associated with the acquisition of RedHill.

Additional information on depreciation and amortisation expense

Following the completion of the acquisition accounting for the RedHill acquisition changes were recorded in the values of both intangible assets and right-of-use assets to reflect their fair value on the date of acquisition. These changes have resulted in additional depreciation and amortisation expense in FY22.

Identified intangible assets have been recognised on the balance sheet and are being amortised over their useful lives. Total amortisation of these intangibles in FY22 were $1.5 million. For further details, refer to Note 15.

Right-of-use assets previously impaired were revalued upwards effective from the date of acquisition. Total depreciation of these assets in FY22 were $1.7 million. For further details, refer to Note 12.

Impairment testing of intangible assets

The recoverable amount of the consolidated entity’s intangible assets has been determined by a value in use calculation using a discounted cash flow (DCF) model, based on a 3-year projection approved by management, along with a terminal value in year 3. Modeling has been performed for each of the consolidated entities CGU’s.

The following key assumptions were used in the discounted cash flow model:

  • The discount rate used is the pre-tax equivalent of a post-tax WACC of 11%; and

  • A terminal growth rate of 2%.

The allocation of the carrying value of goodwill and intangible assets at 30 June 2022 and used for impairment testing is as follows:

Results of impairment testing

GREENWICH

Sensitivity analysis has been conducted on the recoverable amount based on a change in the discount rate (increase by 2% ppts), the terminal value growth rate (decrease by 2% ppts) and a reduction in earnings (10% per annum). Under all modelled scenarios the DCF valuation was greater than the carrying value of the CGU assets and no impairment is required.

Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the consolidated entity. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date to recognised financial assets is the carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to the financial statements. The consolidated entity does not hold any collateral.

Impairment losses

Impairment losses are recorded against receivables unless the Group is satisfied that no recovery of the amount owing is possible; at that point the amount is considered irrecoverable and is written off against the financial asset directly. The ageing of the Group’s trade receivable sat reporting date was as follows:

Liquidity risk

Vigilant liquidity risk management requires the consolidated entity to maintain sufficient liquid assets (mainly cash and cash equivalents) and available borrowing facilities to be able to pay debts as and when they become due and payable.

The consolidated entity manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves and available borrowing facilities by continuously monitoring actual and forecast cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

The table have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the financial liabilities are required to be paid. The tables include both interest and principal cash flows disclosed as remaining contractual maturities and therefore these totals may differ from their carrying amount in the statement of financial position.

The cash flows in the maturity analysis above are not expected to occur significantly earlier than disclosed. Contractual maturities related to lease liabilities are disclosed in Note 13.

Fair value of financial instruments

Unless otherwise stated, the carrying amounts of financial instruments reflect their fair value. The carrying amounts of trade receivables and trade payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their shortterm nature. The fair value of financial liabilities is estimated by discounting the remaining contractual maturities at the current market interest rate that is available for similar financial instruments.

Capital Management

The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as a going concern while maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance.

The capital structure of the Group consists of debt, cash and cash equivalents and equity attributable to equity holders of the parent, comprising issued capital, reserves and accumulated losses. None of the Group’s entities are subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

Operating cash flows are used to maintain and expand operations, as well as to make routine expenditures such as tax, dividends and general administrative outgoings. Gearing levels are reviewed by the Board on a regular basis in line with target gearing ratio, the cost of capital and the risks associated with each class of capital.

Working capital
